They're new neighbours but they have been in the neighbourhood for a while and anyway, it feels like we have known them forever.
There is an ease in the ebb and flow of life living next door to this beautiful little family of three.
The side gate is open and a precious two year old tinkerbell tiptoes in to our backyard now and again to steal a jump on the trampoline or five minutes playing trains with our boys.
A big black dog has been well and truly adopted and hours are spent patting.
The spoils of cooking and produce are shared and containers of deliciousness are passed across the fence and back again.
The difficult hours of dinner, bath and bedtime are easier when you can call out to someone else facing the same trials next door.
Having new neighbours, might seem like a relatively small thing in the grand scheme.
Small or not, it feels like I have won the lottery.

I love our neighbours most of the time but it is like they live on a different planet - single, carefree and partying (not that I miss those days!) I do miss having neighbours with kids and all the crazy that it brings. You are lucky to have such wonderful neighbours.
ReplyDeleteI miss having neighbours like that. Such a great thing for the adults and the kids.
ReplyDeleteGood neighbours are worth more than most people realise.
ReplyDeleteSO glad you got yourself some good eggs there.
